Bones: Mummy in the Maze

October 31st 2007 04:55


Booth and Bones find a real life mummy hanging in a Halloween maze. But first they get kind of lost, and when the cop on the walkie-talkie gets the directions mixed up, Booth just busts right through the haystack walls in the direction of his flying flashlight. Problem solved!

Bones: How long will it take to get out of this maze?


Booth: Not as long as you might think.

*clicks his car key remote and…busts through some more haystacks right into the parking lot*

Back at the lab, Cam tells Hodgins and Zack that they will all go to the Halloween party dressed up. Zack decides on the back end of a cow and Hodgins on the captain of the Titanic.

Angela and Hodgins meet the PI who’s going to go to track down Angela’s husband. We found out that Angela’s real name is, well, not Angela Montenegro. She flies down to the unnamed key her husband is staying in, where she finds out the man still loves Angela, doesn’t want to get a divorce, and even built her a house. Despite the PI’s insistence of trying to get Angela to realize how gorgeous her husband is and how much he still wants her, Angela insists that she only wants to marry Hodgins.

Another mummy turns up in a haunted house, “The Dungeon of 1000 Corpses” to be exact. Booth and Bones go in, and Booth has to confront his fear of clowns. It’s the only time we’ve seen Booth actually jump in fright! Awww, first Sam (as in Sam Winchester of Supernatural) and now Agent Booth…I love it!


Looking at the evidence, the squints figure out that someone is actually trying to scare girls to death by drugging them and subjecting them to their worse fears. Think spiders, snakes, being buried alive, that kind of thing.

Booth dresses as a Squint for Halloween, complete with the taped glasses and blue lab coat, and Bones dresses as Wonder Woman. It’s her favorite costume. She wears it every year. Cam dresses as Catwoman, thus bringing up the debate, who’s stronger? Catwoman or Wonder Woman? Zack and Hodgins agree with Bones, definitely Wonder Woman.

Booth brings in a suspect dressed as the Grim Reaper. A guy who just happened to be at both crime scenes. When they find out he and his girlfriend had fun “roughing up” teenage girls, both Booth and Bones take a swing at the guy. Haha. Nice.

The best part of the entire episode is about the last fifteen minutes when everyone is dressed in their costumes. Oh yeah, Angela dresses up as Cher. They figure out the kid and his pierced girlfriend weren’t the killers after all, and Booth and Bones go to where they think the missing girl might still be alive—near a flower shop by the subway.

They get to the florists, and Booth shoots off the lock. Bones produces her giant gun, to which he asks, “OK, where did you even find a place to carry that?” She wants to shoot off the next lock, but Booth just takes it apart in his hands. They find a bunch of drugs and he figures out that the murderer is the EMT. Bones: “Smart. You should wear a lab coat at all times!”

They find another lock and Bones asks if she can shoot it off. Booth tells her no, but not before she can get off the shot…Which then bounces off the lock, off her Wonder Woman armbands, and hits Booth in the leg! As Booth is jumping around, Bones opens the door to find tons of snakes everywhere! She screams, and jumps off the floor. Apparently Bones has a slight phobia of snakes. Booth sighs and tells her to get on his back.

They enter the snake-filled room and find Megan, but the evil clown shows up and Bones shoots at him before he can shoot them. Booth drops her, she hits her head, then yells at him for dropping her. He says it was because she keeps shooting at things! She tells him her gun is too big for her, which he reminds her he’s been telling her the whole time, and they switch weapons. Bones stays behind with Megan as Booth goes after the killer clown.

By the time they make it back to the Jeffersonian, they’re both dirty, tired, and Booth is bloody from being shot twice--once by his partner, and grazed by the killer clown. Bones tells him they could still go to the party dressed as Wonder Woman and Clark Kent after a really bad date. He reminds her, “Yeah, a bad date because you shot me.”
Her response? “It was only a flesh wound, and you dropped me on my head!”

They decide they might as well go get a bite to eat. Bones can’t resist a Wonder Woman Spin on the way out...

This week had a ton of favorite Quotes of the week, so aside from the above, here’s some more:

Hodgins: And that’s what makes me King of The Lab. *off Cam’s look* A…loyal servant of the Empress…

~*~*~

Booth: What did you see?

Nurse: A corpse, right pass the killer clown.

Booth: *nervously* Clown?

~*~*~

Bones: Who’s stronger? Catwoman or Wonder Woman?

Zack and Hodgins: Wonder Woman

Bones: I concur vehemently.

~*~*~

Booth: Please be advised that Agents are dressed as a squint and Wonder Woman.

~*~*~And my favorite...~*~*~*~

*After Bones accidentally shoots Booth*

Booth: You shot me! I said no! “Don’t shoot, no!”

Bones: Are you alright?

Booth:--“Don’t shoot, no, I said!”

Bones : I’m sorry! The bullet bounced off my bracelet, just like in Amazonia!

Booth: Jeez, Bones!

*she opens the door to find hundreds of snakes, screams, and jumps up off the floor*

Booth: What are you doing? They’re not poisonous.

Bones: I know. I know.

Booth: Then why don’t you get down?

Bones: It seems I’m not completely in control of my actions.

Booth: Get on my back…

*She does, they both go in with their guns and flashlights*

~*~*~

Great episode! So much fun to watch.

From Comingsoon.net:

After years of David Duchovny talking about the sequel, and almost 10 years after the first feature, 20th Century is finally ready to start production on The X-Files 2 with the actor in place to reprise his role of Special Agent Fox Mulder. Gillian Anderson is also expected to be back on board to play Special Agent Dana Scully.

Shooting is scheduled to begin on December 10 in Vancouver under the direction of series creator Chris Carter. Carter and Frank Spotnitz wrote the script.

The studio is referring to the film in casting breakdowns as "Done One."

The popular series ran on Fox from 1993 to 2002. Rob Bowman directed the first feature, which hit theaters on June 19, 1998.

I'm still not quite sure what to think about this. A huge part of me wants to jump up and down excitedly yelling, "FINALLY!". The other part, the more suspicious X-philes part is still saying, I want to believe...I'll start jumping when we get the "official" word from Fox.

Heroes: The Line

October 30th 2007 03:05

Kensei and Hiro find Yaeko’s father and he tells them White Beard has guns. This would end the way of the Samurai, so Hiro convinces Kensei to destroy all the guns. In the fight, Yaeko gets up in the line of fire and Hiro transports them into the woods. His powers and his identity are no longer a secret. She asks him if he loves her and he says, “I do. Very much.” Just as she leans in to kiss him, he freezes time, then kisses her. Unfortunately Kensei sees the whole thing. It was the kiss that changed history. Kensei goes to the other side.

Mohinder refuses to keep working at his new job because he finds out they’re taking away people’s powers, and he doesn’t want to take away Monica’s and he doesn’t want them to hurt Molly. Bob convinces him otherwise, and suddenly Nikki’s his new “partner”.

Meanwhile, Claire gets back at the head cheerleader, Debbie, the way only another cheerleader could. She publicly humiliates her using both her and her new guy’s powers. They make Debbie think she sees a masked man fly down, pick Claire up and drop her on the concrete stairs. When the police come, everyone is there to see her get busted for drinking. Oh what a *cough* shame. Looks like Claire might make it on the team after
all.

Alejandro, Sylar, and Maya drive through the unfinished fence in the US/Mexican border and, big surprise, the border police show up. Sylar convinces her to use her powers on them to get them through. Alejandro doesn’t like it, and Sylar tells him the truth, he’s going to kill them both when he gets his powers back. Unfortunately Alejandro doesn’t speak English.

Claire’s father and The Hatian go on an information hunt where Noah ends up killing someone. I’ll let you <a Really Long Link for yourself</a> to see who.

Peter finds a place with The Symbol above the door. There’s a note from “Adam” warning him about The Company on a mirror, and is suddenly transported to a very deserted New York in June 14, 2008.

Chuck Versus The Sandworm

October 30th 2007 02:25

What kind of sandwich would you choose to take to a deserted island?

A crazy genius expert bomb builder escapes and ends up in a Guitar Hero challenge with Morgan. This is how Chuck finds out he’s on the loose. He tells Chuck he just wants to be a normal guy and that he didn’t really kill anyone, he was set up. He tells Chuck to go home and check his apartment. His handlers in the FBI and CIA don’t trust him as much as he thinks.

Chuck finds bugs throughout his apartment and goes to confront Casey about them. Thus enter the sandwich dilemma. Casey tells him the bugs were there for Chuck’s safety and the violation is not to Chuck, but to Casey’s ears. A four hour argument over what sandwich to take to a deserted island? Who does that? Chuck says no one could talk for four hours over a sandwich. Casey takes him to the audio files to prove him wrong.

Meanwhile, Captain Awesome gives Morgan some lessons in being a grown up, telling him, “There comes a time in every young man’s life that he has to ask himself the question. Am I a “tucker”?” As in, do you tuck in your shirts or not?

Chuck’s big interview comes up, as does a matter of national security. Just as he’s getting ready to go in for the interview, he finds out that the bomb guy who stole his car (and ejected Chuck from the driver’s side in a very funny action sequence), is getting ready to blow up the pier where he became property of the US government thanks to his genius Tetris playing.

Chuck doesn’t show up to his interview and Morgan, despite the fact that he’s mad at Chuck for telling him to grow up, tries to stick up for him. Unfortunately, he doesn’t get the job.

It’s Halloween time, and Chuck stops a bomb, runs home to his sister’s party, and he and Morgan make up just in time to bring out the Sandworm costume. Chuck even lets Morgan be the head this year. Awwww…

Oh yeah, and to get back at Casey (and the sandwich question) for bugging his room, Chuck tells Morgan that Sarah picked roast beef. They both agree it’s a terrible choice.

If I’ve learned anything in 85 years, it’s that what you want doesn’t always matter. You can want to get here to there. You can want to be on time. You can want to avoid someone for their own good because…say you drank their blood out in the desert. But if the universe wants something different, well you can run, but you can’t hide.—Mick St. John

Poor Addison tries to have a party with her new coworkers, and no one RSVPs. Except for Dell suddenly when she brings it up. A very nervous Sam goes on TV and tells people that he cares about his patients, and when one man is self-conscious about being bald, Sam reminds him that many important people are bald. Like the Arm & Hammer guy. This, of course, is what he’s teased about throughout the rest of the episode, as the Arm & Hammer “bald guy” is really just an arm and a hammer

October 18th 2007 03:32

I’ve been watching this show since the first episode, and I love the storybook/semi-warped fairtytaleness of it all. There’s a heightened reality to everything from the voice-overs to the costumes, the subject matter, and set decorations. In Pushing Daisies, the main character, Ned, is a pie maker who found out at a young age that if he touched a dead thing, he could bring it back to life

For some people it’s like asking them, "Which one is your favorite kid?" For others it's, hands down I like *insert name of show here*. For me, I have lots of categories of “Favorite Show”s. There’s the “of all time” category, and then the “currently making new episodes now”, and the “I watch if I remember it’s on, but I really do like it”. Then you have to get into the favorite dramas, comedies, dramedies, and everything in between. There’s always the classics, and then the shows you watch a whole episode of and think, “What was I thinking? I am so not watching that again...” except for the next week when you do

Rest in peace Charlie (a.k.a. Really old Guy). After a year in a coma, the man we’ve come to know as Really Old Guy woke up, and, surprise! He was only semi comatose. As in he could hear everything that went on when our favorite interns-now-residents ate their lunch in his room all of last year. He wakes up and decides he wants to die. After he’s had lobster of course. Izzie tells him he can’t just will himself to die and that he’s not going to on her watch.

Let's face it. Little kids are scary. They’re even scarier when it turns out they're changelings sucking on their mothers’ necks.

It started out great with Sam trying to talk to Bobby on the phone about a possible way to get Dean out of his demon deal. When Dean comes in he quickly hangs up and says he was just ordering a pizza. Insert favorite moment #1

Moonlight

October 8th 2007 17:33

Okay I admit it. I like a vampire show. Maybe because the creators of CBS’s Moonlight gave Mick St. John (Alex O'Loughlin) a brooding, it’s-not-easy-being-a-vampire soul who has a soft spot for helping people. The show kind of reminds me of an old noir detective movie with its dark lighting and voiceovers. In Mick’s world silver bullets are poison, wooden stakes to the heart will only paralyze you, but fire, well let’s just say fire is a vampire’s worst nightmare
